Just wanted to thank you for what you bring to C99 day after day. The music is always a bright spot after reading some of the stories you have posted.

Hope you are having a wonderful celebration with family and friends. I will be heading down Texas way and will get to celebrate with friends and family many of whom I have not seen in over a year. This evening I am enjoyed a stuffed sweet potato and nice green salad with a glass of wine.

@on the cusp

glad to hear that you guys are having a fabulous thanksgiving. right now i am listening to the dog polishing her bowl to a fare-thee-well. a little turkey broth and shredded white meat goes a long way towards making the kibble appetizing.

take care and have a great break.

We got a special treat this morning with 3 buffalo there to greet us when I opened the door. Yikes, Sam get back here. I snuck off to the bathroom and they gave me a good look, but stayed put. They stuck around all day till 3:00 then boogied for greener pastures. Lots of people came into my spot to see them. Lots of people. I stayed in the trailer with Sam except for when we came back from a long walk and she told a few how excited she was to see them.

Not as many clouds tonight so it’s fizzling. Steak, potatoes, Shiraz and cheesecake for our dinner. Hope everyone had one just as good.

I 2nd jakklebessie…thanks Joe!

Sam is sacked out from watching the buffalo all day from inside. Whoa it gets cold fast here. Just got back from the facilities and freezing already. And very dark.

I’m not sure when these posts were put in. They look like an extension off the chain link fence for the buffalo but they would have been under water when installed. Can see where a wire grooved them and they look broken off.
